    Locusts in Caucasus and Central Asia
    Bulletin N82
    2022
    Also available in:

    Moroccan Locust (DMA) fledging, mating and egg-laying started in southern parts of Central Asia. DMA hopper development continued in Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russian Federation. Italian Locust (CIT) hatching and hopper development continued in Georgia and in Central Asian (CA) countries. Migratory Locust (LMI) hatching started in Kazakhstan, Russian Federation and Uzbekistan. DMA swarm flights including across borders were reported in the southern part of CA. The situation with DMA was critical in Tajikistan, while it was classified as caution for both DMA and CIT in most other countries. During the forecast period, DMA breeding will continue and its lifecycle will come to the end while CIT hopper development will continue in Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Russian Federation and northern regions of Kazakhstan. LMI hopper development will continue in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Russian Federation and Uzbekistan. CIT fledging will occur in other regions of Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. In total, 427 379 hectares (ha) have been treated in CCA from the beginning of the 2022 campaign to the end of May, which is 35 percent lower compared to the same period in 2021 (665 000 ha).

    Moroccan Locust (DMA) fledging, mating and egg laying started in most areas of Central Asia (CA), with swarm flights, including across borders, reported in southern parts. The situation was critical in Afghanistan and Tajikistan in early May, while it was classified as caution by the end of month for both countries. DMA hopper development continued in Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russian Federation. Italian Locust (CIT) hatching started followed by hopper development in most Caucasus and Central Asia (CCA) countries. Migratory Locust (LMI) hatching was reported in Kazakhstan, Russian Federation and Uzbekistan. During the forecast period, DMA breeding will continue, and its lifecycle will come to an end while CIT hopper development will continue in Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Russian Federation and northern regions of Kazakhstan. CIT fledging will occur in other regions of Kazakhstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. LMI hopper development will continue in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Russian Federation and Uzbekistan. In total, 777  998  hectares (ha) have been treated in CCA from the beginning of the 2023 campaign to the end of May, which is 45 percent higher compared to the same period in 2022  (427 379 ha).

    Locusts in CCA - Bulletin N.61
    apr/19
    2019
    Also available in:

    Locusts in CCA General situation during April 2019 Forecast until mid-June 2019 Moroccan Locust (DMA) hopper development was in progress in all Central Asian (CA) countries except the Russian Federation as well as in Azerbaijan and probably in Georgia. Because of the cool and wet weather, hopper development was delayed in most countries, and control operations were carried out on significantly smaller areas than in April 2018 (except for Kyrgyzstan). During the forecast period, DMA fledging will occur in most countries while hatching followed by hopper development will take place in the Russian Federation and generalize in Azerbaijan and probably Georgia. Italian Locust (CIT) hatching will start in CCA countries progressively from south to north. LMI hatching will also start at the end of the forecast period. Since the beginning of the national campaigns, 122 408 ha have been treated against DMA hoppers, about four times less than in 2018.
